Brake question
I just bought a '91 gs-t for 500$ because the person who owned it didn't know why it wouldn't shift. Anyway I fixed the TCU and then was driving it around and had a tie rod end break on me. I replaced the lower ball joints, tie rod ends, and had all the rotors turned and front brake pads. I had to remove one of the rear calipers because of a broken bolt. Now when I drive it, there isn't much pedal pressure in the brakes but I bled the shit out of the lines until new fluid came out the caliper. Any suggestions on the less than spectacular pedal pressure? Also when I push the brake pedal all the way down there is what feels almost like a warped rotor pulse in the pedal but that can't be being that I just had them turned. I'm thinking that it might just be a bent rim? any suggestions are greatly appreciated. thanks

Re: Brake question
possibly stuck caliper or leaking caliper???

Re: Brake question
You would feel a bent rim all the time not just when braking. If you are having a mushy pedal I doubt you bled all the air out. Try bleeding at all corners just to verify that it has been done.
If you still have a soft pedal after everything has been bled you might need to look into rebuilding/replacing the master if you cant see any leaks. |
Re: Brake question
Well when I'm driving on a really smooth road I can feel the same little pulse while driving that I feel during braking. Sorry it was very clear in the first post. Thats the only reason why I think its a bent rim. Also the first time I drove it after I had done all this the back right tire was sliding on the snow until I hit dry pavement and then it started rolling. So maybe that caliper is sticking or something?
